Dwayne Buckle

[edit]

Nonnotable filmmaker (has made one film, no indep. sources showing its notability). He was in the news for getting beat up in Greenwich Village ~~this past week~~ -- that's not enough, either. See WP:BLP1E. NawlinWiki 05:06, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep notable as director and as a sound engineer and as a media figure. Nawlins facts are not correct. Buckle was assulted and stabbed in Aug 2006 not last week. --The Emperor of Wikipedia & Protector of Wiktionary 05:08, 28 June 2007 (UTC) (article author)[reply]
- Response Fair enough, but the date change doesn't make him any more notable. NawlinWiki 05:17, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as non-notable, no reliable sources to show notability. Perhaps once his documentary comes out, he'll be notable enough for an article. -- Kesh 05:21, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article itself says that his only claim to notability is his assault, and I'm pretty sure that being assaulted and appearingon the O'Reilly Factor isn't grounds for a wikipedia article. Calgary 05:25, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, fails WP:BLP1E and WP:BIO otherwise. If his documentary proves notable article may be recreated. --Dhartung | Talk 05:36, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep per media coverage. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:10, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP Wikipedia should be inclusive not exclusive. I am a firm believer that most bios should be allowed to remain. All bios need is sources and a minimal standard of notability. The larger Wikipedia is the best of a resource it is. One million articles is much better that one hundred thousand articles. It should be a source of information on the most trivial matters to the most important. Callelinea 04:38, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- You keep saying this. However, Wikipedia is not for the most trivial matters. If you want to change that, suggest policy changes at the Village pump. You can't change policy by making a point on every biographical AfD. -- Kesh 04:57, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per media coverage, even though the NY Post's style of writing would never cut it here. :o) --EarthPerson 02:23, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've found discussion in forums about how his attack changed in the media from being an "assault by a group of women" to one by "a roving gang of lesbians". These are not direct quotes on either, but the general idea. Unfortunately these are forums and not an editorial from a good source. Finding one would help greatly. --EarthPerson 17:08, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

this article must be somwhat notable as someone has has vandalized it about six times--The Emperor of Wikipedia 23:04, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Every article on Wikipedia gets vandalized, notable or not. -- Kesh 01:13, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is a self promotion article. The court case in itself should have a page not one person involved.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.199.109.222 (talk • contribs) 23:15, July 4, 2007— 24.199.109.222 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- I wrote this article and I am not Dwayne Buckle nor do I have any affliation with him. This is not a self promotion article.--The Emperor of Wikipedia 03:03, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
